Quickstep Ghoul
Undead Sprinter from Duskmourn House of Horror is a compact, efficient threat that rewards aggressive play and graveyard planning. The card reads as a low cost attacker with haste and a triggered reanimation effect tied to combat damage, which makes it a natural inclusion in tempo focused black decks or looter builds that want bodies back for one more swing. Players who pilot attack phases carefully will find the Sprinter converts small margins into recurring pressure.
The lore behind Undead Sprinter fits the set: restless courtyards, hurried revenants that skitter between tombstones. In practice the card is straightforward to sequence. Play it, attack with it, and you may recur a tiny creature from your graveyard to keep momentum or set up sacrifice synergies. It is useful both in draft and constructed where you need a reliable, repeatable source of tempo without expanding your mana curve.
